The veritable Ryan Gosling assumes the lead role in Drive, a neo-noir homage to the dark action/suspense films of the Eighties. As a Hollywood stuntman by day and a getaway driver by night, Gosling gets caught up in a deathly serious chain of events involving a sociopathic mobster (Albert Brooks), and his only option is to do what he does best: Drive. Minimal dialogue, an unnamed protagonist and one of the best soundtracks around help separate this film from the Hollywood formula. Amazing performances by Gosling and Brooks cap off what is already a highly-entertaining and visually stunning film by Nicolas Winding Refn.
